Fairview is propane and wood country — large wooded lots, many homes on propane, steady demand for stoves and inserts. Steady Flame Fireplaces carries and installs Heatilator, but here we sort fuel and heat goals first; the showroom Novus nXt 36 is natural gas. Our Asheville floor is 15 minutes west. Call (828) 545-0525.
Propane and wood country
Out in Fairview the lots are big and wooded, most homes run propane, and a lot of people heat with wood because the fuel is right outside. That frames the Heatilator question honestly: the Novus nXt 36 we display is natural gas, so on a propane property we handle the tank connection and appliance setup — and if your heart's set on wood, we install and service that too, from a Regency wood stove to an EPA-certified fireplace. We match the fuel to your place, not the other way around.
Where Heatilator fits out here
A gas Heatilator still earns a spot in Fairview — plenty of owners want the convenience of a sealed, flip-a-switch fire in the main room and wood in the shop or basement. The Novus nXt is the value gas option: 26,000 BTU, sealed direct-vent, no chimney needed, low upkeep. It's the easy everyday fire; a wood stove is the grid-independent workhorse. A lot of wooded-lot homes here end up with one of each.
Buncombe County permit, creosote and all
Connecting gas is licensed work in North Carolina, and we pull the Buncombe County permit, pressure-test the line, and meet the inspector. If you're burning wood, don't skip the fall sweep — creosote buildup is the leading cause of chimney fires out here, and an annual cleaning is cheap insurance. We handle gas installs and chimney service both. Come see the Novus nXt in Asheville — free in-home estimate. Call (828) 545-0525.
